3 galaxies photographed at once! Using my star tracker I was able to capture fixed point images of star fields on my latest mission to the ISS. Here we see a portion of our Milky Way galaxy, and the two Magellanic Clouds to the right. Our orbit blurs ocean waters below on Earth, with orange airglow between.
